The Memphis Tigers are the true 2008 NCAA Champions. They really brought this city together for a brief moment of peace, kindness, and hope. Though we lost, I do not think the feelings will be forgotten as almost every Memphian sat on the edge of their seat or stood frigid watching the last moments of the game and realized it would not end in our favor. We are all in the same place, Memphis. We all feel a little sad, but we are not alone. It was not just the sports buffs or college kids; it was all of Memphis. It really felt like we needed to win this tournament, but I think that we should all take a step back and realize that Memphis really made itself a moment to remember when we were all united so effortlessly.
Keep your heads up, Memphis. We have shown ourselves capable of a great thing and keeping it up through the hard times is the ultimate test. Let us not allow what some men call a defeat actually defeat us.
